LINcoLN's SHERIFF.
A Calm, DIspasslonate Review of
His Official Delinquencies-

Many Of the people of this coun-
~ ore quietly resting under the i'm
precision that our present Sheriff is a
model Official AID could no. be i'm
proved upon. Knowing this, and
having some reason already TO doubt
the correctness Of it, a representa-.
tive of The LEADER, as faithful
sentinel on the watch tower, has
lately been making some investiga-
tons into the matter, and we find
that the truth is, Mr.. McNair has
made a very ordinary Sheriff, and
that part Of his official record will
not pass muster at all, as we shall
proceed to show.
We will refer first to the large
proportion of delinquent taxes he
has tailed to collect. The showing,
as taken from the books in the
Chanccry Clerks office, is as fol.

The Fisheries Negotiations.

TORONTO, September S.-A special
from Ottawa, to the Mail, says: Guesses
continue to be made at the probable
basis of the fisheries negotiations, but
it is officially stated that they are
simply guesses. e Government has re-
ceived no intimation yet, which would
warrant any of the statements which
have appeared, while government and
Parliament would probably not reject
any piecemeal offer of a settlement of
any portion of the dispute now pend
ing; yet, at the same time, it is under
stood that government is anxious to
arrive at a full and final settlement Of
the difficulties, and negotiations will be
conducted with that end in view.

Gladstone's Declination

LONDON, September 8.-The letter con-
tanning the invitation to Gladstone to
attend the centennial celebration of the
adoption of the American Constitution
at Philadelphia, was dated June oath,
and was signed by Messrs. Kasson,
Little, Carson & Co., for the committee.
Gladstone was invited as guest of the
committee, and he was informed by the
gentleman who conveyed to him the in
vitation that it was the only one sent to
any person not an American citizen or
an accredited diplomat, the exception
in his case being intended as an express
recognition of the historical ties which
bound Great Britain and America be-
fore the declaration of independence.
He was also assured that he would be
allowed to make whatever arrange
ments he pleased and would be enter
tanned in America as no man has been
since the visit of General Lafayette.
Gladstone, on July Goth, made a re-
ply to the letter, and assured the COM
mittee of the great honor in receiving
an invitation to the celebration of the
centennial of the adoption of the Amer
lean Constitution. His letter con-
tinues: The attractions of the in
vitatian are enhanced to me by
the circumstance that l have
always regarded that Constitution as
the most remarkable work known to
modern times, to have been produced
by human intellect at single stroke,
so to speak, in its application to po-
litical affairs The invitation is accom-
panied by every accessory that even
American hospitality could devise.

could not but accept, but t. imitation

SAINT pressure of engagements, make me

is doubtful whether they might not be

ton you offer me, which is not less sig
nal than undeserved. The first of these
reasons, however, compels me to de-
cline the most fattering proposal l have
ever received. shall watch, with pro
found interest, the proceedings of your
celebration, when you will look back upon
the century of national advancement
that is without parallel in history, and
look forward to its probable continuance
upon still larger scale. That you and
your children may be enabled by the
help of the Almighty to worthily meet
the accumulation of the high duties and
responsibilities proportioned to your
ever-growing power, will be, am con-
fdent, the prayer of your kinsmen
here, who hope, nay, believe, that the
portions of the one race are wisely
destined to acquire increasing harmony
and closeness.

The Dreadful Gale.

81. JOINS, N.F., September s.-Re-
ports daily arriving from all pats OF
the country 60 to show that the gale OF
the 26th of. August was one that will be
remembered for the loss of life and the
extent of damage sustained from it. A
vessel, name unknown, was wrecked on
the back of Langley Island, near st.
Pierre, and as no trace of her crew has
yet.been found, it is feared that they
must all have met with a watery
grave. Several large vessels went
ashore on Dog Island, near St. Pierre,
and in many cases became total wrecks.
One hundf, d thousand dollars will not
cover the extent of damage to property
sustained By the Newfoundland vessels
that were on the banks during the
storm. Many vessels arriving have
even q ssdder record to tell. how those
who went oat in the morning never had
a chance of returning, but were swal-
lowed in the pitiless storm or were
driven to sea to drown. go - --
The French bark CherraaeH reports

here are as many IS Eve banking
scho ,ners missing from, BURN, five
from Grand Bank, and one from Burgess,
ali vi which were on the banks the
morning of the gale, and have not yet
been seen or heard from. If these yes
sells sre lost, the bread winners of hun
dreds will have found watery graves.
Nor are the south and west part of the
coast the only places that suffered. A
telegram to day gives the first report
from Labrador of the gale. and says
that from places so far heard from, as
many as ten schooners have been lost,
but fortunately no lives.

Indiana's Finances.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 2s.-The
state treasurer has paid $3.50 semi
annual interest on the 100000 state
house loan. He received this morning
Sl4,0 900 from the county treasurer, which
is about enough to enable him to pay off
all the institutions to the end of the cur
rent year, which is the 31st inst. The
treasurer has also decided to pay the
salaries of state officers, clerks and
other employees as provided for by stat
ute, and look to the next legiSloture for
reimbursement. This has been done
before under similar circumstances.
Thus the great bugaboo of the bank
ruptcy of the state treasury telegraphed

THE COAL BARONs.
They Have Their Hands on the
PeOple'S Pockets,


CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-The bread riots of
London are matter of history, and if
there are coal riots in Chicago this win
ter it will not be surprising. Winter
weather has already set in, and much to
the astoniShment of the proverbial old
est inhabitant, almost zero weather has
come in the third week of October in
stead of the first week in December.
Meanwhile the coal baronS have their
hands on the throats and pockets OF the
people, and there is considerable suffer-
ing in the districts peopled by the poor.
In August small egg coal sold for S6.75.
In September it was advanced to 81,
on Oct to S7.25, and on Oct. IA to
S7.75. This, be it remembered,
is the figure for purchasers who
can afford to take at least a ton
at time, while the unfOrtunateS
who depend on hand to mouth
supply and get what they need by the
baSketful from peddlerS are taxed some
present price of this necessary COM
modify is in all conscience high enough
to meet the rapaciOuS demands of any
body but the Chicago coal baron, but
this particular section of the CONNER
cial ariStocracy of Chicago is not easily
satisfied, and so the fiat has gone forth
that the public may expect to concur
rently celebrate New Years day and
the advent of $40 coal. The dealers
claim that stocks in the city are very
light, but there is something more than
a suspicion that the scarcity is artificial.
A prominent dealer says that there is
an abundance of coal at the mines, but
that the shippers and railroads are en-
gineering a corner and propose to work
it for all it is worth. There is already
considerable feeling and indignation
among ihe poorer classes over the out
look, and the probabilities are that any
further attempt at a squeeze will be fol
lowed by indignation meetings and other
demonstrations which may have ten
dency to bring the barons to their
senses

Is always the best and safest man to
deal with in buying fur garment of
any kind. You may depend upon it
that he knows exactly what he is hand
ling, what it is worth, and its durability.
He has great advantage in this re-

upon the word of the importer or manu-

be made up at home. Consult your own
